I love the reviews of the spare tire subs, which is why I subbed when I watched your JBL bass hub pro install.
I removed the hatch cover and replaced with a Birch box 4¾ deep added a ¾ ring to gap the magnet downward firing DD redline 612 shallow sub tuned box to 30hz still have full access to everything under and 100% cargo space can not describe the bass it's way louder than my old JL TW3
Lots of scratches on that right out of the box. Yeesh
Sometimes test units have been display units before we get them.
You maybe want to put a nylock nut on there and just have the appropriate tool to remove of needed back there. All the vibration otherwise might regularly loosen that up.
I have the JBL one without an amp and it rocks in my 2014 Mazda 3 sedan running on the sub channel of a Kicker KX-8005. Thanks for showing the first video with the amplified JBL.
I have elantra do you recommend these spare subwoofers it will cost me 300$
@@RayanAlzahrani-sv8yx the jbl one is really nice and can take a little more power than the Diamond ones but I have not heard the Diamond one in person. It’s nice to have nice bass (not saying it’s the loudest or hardest hitting bass) but I will definitely shake my rear view mirror. And other than raising my trunk floor, I have no sub box in the way.
🙏🧡
It's amazing how far technology has come in all facets of life! Thanks for sharing!
I've put the cerwin Vega amplified version in a challenger and was super surprised at the performance. It's not a trunk shaker but delivered amazing bass for what it is.
you need to show more interesting new tech like this.
We have a 2015 Murano with a factory Bose spare tire subwoofer. Has two fairly beefy 5" 2-ohm woofers but they only get 28W each out of the Bose amp 🤣 This Diamond on a decent amp looks quite interesting as a replacement
Same, did you replace the Bose? I'm thinking maybe just a higher output amp might make it bump a lil more.
This sub looks futuristic.
protip, if you are going to crank down the bolt, make sure you keep a spare tool to remove it road side in case the spare is ever needed.
Definitely!
I just installed a jbl basshub pro and we was shocked how much bass it produced
So which one do you prefer, JBL or Diamond?
Heard em both, in hatchbacks. Diamond. No question.
Lol, no, just no. The JBL passive Stadium Basshub is much better than this. This vs. the JBL active, OK,,, maaaaybe. In that case, it depends greatly on the amplifier used and its hardly "apples to apples," as they say.
Hearing them both in different setups/vehicles isn't the same as testing them in the otherwise the exact same setup/vehicle.
How does this compare to the JBL bass hub?? Which do you like better?? Thanks for the videos!!
Now I guess I have to install the Cerwin Vega unit I have sitting around into my wife's car to see how it do.
I've been running one of the cerwin vega units for about 4yrs, it has a great sound. Not earth shattering, but a great addition to a factory setup
Same company.
A small 500 watt amp paired to a 300 Watt RMS sub seems a bit overpowered.
Also, did it sound better or worse with the trunk floor liner down?
Hopefully this or the JBL will fit flush in a 2023 KIA Sportage!
If the JBL will fit, go with it. Look now, today, it's on sale. Even at full retail, the price difference is more than justified by the performance difference, IMO.
Just an observation: Is the nut holding the structure in place the same size as a lug nut? If not, then it seems that a person with one of these would need to add a secondary wrench to the tire change tools to get the spare out.
Granted, one extra wrench vs all that trunk space seems to make it worth it.
The hex nut is supposed to act like a jamb nut so it all acts as one piece. Once the height is set, take it back out and tighten the hex nut and wing nut against each other really tight.
Lil different i bought a new Civic sport 2.0 hatch. My friends have a shoo installed a p-300 12 . Ill be honest i did not think it could do anything. Wow, was i wrong!! It sounds like a 500 rms sub!! At 1 ohm
Those are no joke
I’d image having the proper tire pressure in the spare would be helpful to keep the spare and sub secured properly.
I just seen that there is a slim-line version of this speaker.....you think you will be able to get a hold of that one for testing???
You never know, we can ask
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc ask JBL to test theirs against this,,, please. Your viewers deserve the comparison (with data measurements).
I really want one of these, but imagine I am going to have the same issue with it being too tall. In my Blazer the cargo deck has a hinge and is flush with the bottom of the rear hatch so raising it isn't really an option. I will probably have to go with the slim version but I feel like that is a little bit of a compromise. I wonder how the sound compares between this and the slim version.
How would this compare to the JBL BassPro Hub with the built in amp?
Does this hit harder then the jbl one
Hi Guys I would like to do this same setup on my Kia Sportage x Line 2023. Could you that
Lol can you make that sound again
Do you connect both sides of the voice coils together does this make it a 2 ohm load?
Yes
As always, you guys knock it out of the park with your reviews and entertainment value.
Q- I have a Honda S2000 (2-dr convertible) and not a lot of trunk space. If I were to get the shallow amplified version to fit in the spare, do you think it would provide a decent sound/output for the car? The spare sits maybe 24” from the head position.
I would get with Ata at absolute electrics in Rockville Maryland
He is the s2000 guy
@@FiveStarCarStereoIncdang what more could you possibly want kid @devinc1887
Doesnt Kicker have the same sort of speaker?
No sir.
I had one shop rave about the jbl vs so wonder how this compares
We did a video on the JBL version with the built in amp. Very nice
The JBL passive version is better than this, and their active version is better than DA's (or CV's). This vs JBL's active, without consideration for longevity, comes down the amplifier used for this in terms of performance around 45Hz and above, below that there's potential for some back and fourth in terms of SPL at a specific frequency.
If this type of solution is better for you than a custom box, the JBL Stadium BassHub should be top of the list, IMO, unless it won't physically fit...
Then what will be best subwoofer application for sedan car to avoid rattling and vibrations
Would this or the cerwin vega version be a suitable upgrade for the factory Bose woofer in my Buick Regal Tourx ?
This is better than the powered CV. The passive JBL, Stadium Basshub, is better yet, objectively, by a significant margin.
I've tried most of the products in this segment, and the CV ones are made inferior, while the JBL ones are made superior. The powered DA ones aren't anything special either, meaning no better than than the CV, overall. They appear to be made in the same factory using many of the same components, which are inferior to the components used for the JBL powered versions.
In this segment, IMO, the only good reason to buy something (currently available in the market) other than JBL is if they won't fit without more modification than you want to do. Maybe price, but if you wait for a sale, that's much less of a factor, but then, I suppose, timing may be.
No matter what, a halfway decent "real", boxed subwoofer, will almost always be a more capable solution. Most of these are "good" or "impressive" only for what they are. That is especially true when, as they often are, when they are set up in a system that's not processing the signal to correct for factory bass rolloff.
Maybe with the passive systems, that's a bit more likely. In the case of the JBL (passive) Stadium Basshub, when setup properly, meaning tuned and with plenty of power, it can be straight up impressive, not just for what it is (or the price). No, it's not going to hit like a properly ported box with 3000w RMS, but it can still impress.
How can I get ahold of you guys have a question about adding a backup camera to my 2011 Ford raptor
Imagine a subwoofer enclosure that could double as a functional spare tire tho…..
Cerwin vega, JBL, and numerous other brands are all selling the exact same unit. My cerwin vega vpas12-st looks identical internally, other than mine is amplified
Cerwin and Diamond are the same company, bro.
The JBL is different, better, but CV and DA are essentially the same. Regarding the powered versions, the JBL uses significantly better electronic components.
the passive JBL is definitely a different unit. that uses a fiberglass cone and it's rated for 600w RMS vs the 300w most other spare tire subs are.
@Tony Hong yes, the JBL passive is impressive. Not just for what it is, but just as a subwoofer against many others.
DID she notice?
I noticed there was nothing in my trunk lol
That's more than enough bass...
